According to The Hollywood Reporter's Lesley Goldberg, ABC Family has expanded Melissa and Joey's third season to 20 episodes. ABC Family has also renewed the show for a fourth season. Here's an excerpt from the article:
"One-hundred episodes is a great accomplishment for any series, and we are thrilled to give Melissa and Joey the opportunity to achieve this milestone, as they’ve delivered hundreds and hundreds of laughs over the seasons,” said Kate Juergens, executive vp programming and development at ABC Family.
The third season will premiere Wednesday, May 29, at 8 p.m., leading in to Baby Daddy, with the second half of the newly ordered episodes set to air in 2014.
The series, from EPs Bob Young and David Kendall, Paula Hart, Melissa Joan Hart and Lawrence, ranks as ABC Family's highest comedy debut ever among total viewers. Its second season ranked as the series best among adults 18-49, women 18-34 and total viewers 12-34.

My thoughts: While I don't think that Melissa and Joey is the funniest TV show ever, I've always thoroughly enjoyed it. The show is still pretty funny though and has continued to get funnier throughout its run, if you ask me. Plus, it has always made for some very fun entertainment during the summer when all of the shows that I watch on network TV are in reruns until the fall. It's really nice to know that Melissa and Joey won't be ending any time soon, and I personally can't wait for season three to start. It's definitely quite an accomplishment for any TV show to reach the 100 episode milestone, so I think that the cast and crew of Melissa and Joey, as well as the network executives at ABC Family should all be very proud of the show and all of the work that they've put into it.
